A boost in federal dollars is giving the Irvine Ranch Water District the funding it needs to store excess treated water instead of dumping it into the ocean.
Driving around Irvine, it's hard to believe the western U.S. is in the middle of multi-year drought.
The water district's general manager Paul Cook said in a press conference Thursday that it was only a matter of time before the water safe to drink. For the Syphon Reservoir, this translates to a 10-fold increase in storage capacity from 578 acre-feet to 5,000 acre-feet.U.S. Representative Katie Porter called the IRWD a national leader in the push to conserve and expand water supplies and she said the time to act was now.
